Mathematics is Beautiful

And is Everywhere!

Mathematics is everywhere

Love, Love, Love

J.H.Poincare (1854-1912)

The mathematician does not study pure

mathematics because it is useful; he studies it

because he delights in it and he delights in it

because it is beautiful.

Mathematics as a

Language

Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)

“The great book of nature can be read only by

those who know the language in which it was

written. And this language is Mathematics.”

Solve

Cube one-third the coefficient of x; add to it the square of one-half the constant of

the equation; and take the square root of the whole. You will duplicate this, and

to one of the two you add one-half the number you have already squared and

from the other you subtract one-half the same... Then, subtracting the cube root

of the first from the cube root of the second, the remainder which is left is the

value of x (Gerolamo Cardano, Ars Magna, 1545).

Rules

Need to be clear and concise

Highly abstract and technical

Symbolic language

Does not consist of formula alone

Word: is! 5 is the square root of 25

5 is less than 10

5 is a prime number

Glamorous Mathematics

Mathematics dive under water

Truly Spectacular

Amazing Mathematics

Mathematics is Beautiful

And is Everywhere!
